Big problem bootlop clean reinstall: '(note 4 (N910F) - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi XDA sorry to bother you but I really really really need your help because I am desperate ...
I am French but I speak a little English and I am your community for a long time!
Here I have a note 4 (N910F) and I was officially NK4. I wanted to install a custom rom but I had beug on official NK4, so I decide to make a clean reinstall before putting a custom rom!
The problem is that in order to do I put my note 4 in download mode and I opened odin then I checked auto reboot, re partition, f reset time and nand erase all. I put the PIT, BL, AP, CP and the SCC in the right boxes then I clicked on START and then restarts the mobile was stuck on the samsung logo and waited 15min .. Always blocked after 15 minutes so I extinguishes.
I tried other manipulation: I try to flash the rom 4 files with the pit but check the nand erase all but still stuck on the Samsung logo.
I try to flash the rom 4 file without the pit but still stuck on the Samsung logo.
I installed philz and restore a backup but always the same.
And I try to do a factory reset before installing the official NK4 and always the same.
I also found that when I do a factory reset I have two errors:
the first E: Error mouting / data!
the second E: Error mouting / sdcard / .android_secure!
Voila so I really need your help because no one can solve my problem: '(
Thank you in advance ..

Download new rom from sammobile, use odin and restart everything from scratch! Dont un-check or change Anything in odin, just start when you have chosen right file..!

Try To change file system of data And sdcard, like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56956070

Maybe you can try this: http://www.phonandroid.com/forum/reinstallation-propre-du-note-4-sm-n910f-t110393.html

First I wanted to thank you for your help!
I finally managed to solve my problem!
I spent more than 7 hours on this problem to finally succeed!
I did a nand erase all with odin then directly flash the cfroot without turning it on after nand erase all. Then I was in the recovery then wipe and factory reset wipe Cache and then I restart my phone and it worked!
For without the flash cfroot it did not work!
it was really long to find this a bit weird solution!
Thank you for your help!

For future reference:
Wipe /data from stock recovery after flashing a PIT and ROM.
Flashing a PIT wipes all partitions on the phone, and Odin only flashes /system, leaving /data unformatted. Wiping /data from stock recovery fixes that.

got error in recovery after flashing with odin

I have flashed my galaxy S with ROM 2.3.3 XXJVK, odin finished, and rebot my phone into recovery mode where i got this error
E: failed to mount /dbdata
E: copy_dbdata_media: can't mount /dbdata
so i select just restart, and phone start.. So i don't know what this mean. Anything wrong? Cause my phone is working on this rom alright, didn't find problems
Only strange thing i find, when i tried to install doc rom it doesn't install.
I selected:
*Wipe version
*Chainfire's Kernel
*All Apps with default Samsung TW Launcher
*XXJVK Stock Theme + AOSP lockscreen + Shut Off Animation
But none of that install after in say in recovery COMPLETE..
if the phone is working fine, dont worry about it.
if it starts to cause issues, you need to flash 'dbdata' thru odin, or a firmware that contains it, such as JM8 or Darkys 9.2 resurrection.
ive had this issue a few times, leading me to boot loops. so if you experience them, you will know why.
or, a more simple solution,
CLEAN YOUR DEVICE BEFORE FLASHING.
i think it is written in every guide,
erase cache, erase internal storage, erase user data!
then flash, and there will be no problem, no error.
also, disable all lagfixes!

Bootloop after Nand Erase All in Odin

Please help.
I'm stuck on bootloop after flashing stock XXUAME2 rom with Odin.
The reason is - I checked/enabled the "Nand Erase All" before flashing. I know, stupid. But what should I do now to unbrick it?
Well, firstly I successfully flashed stock ME2 over my MDM with Odin. But all my stuff was still there (apps, huge files and so on - which I already backed up on my pc) and my memory was almost full. So I wanted to clean everything before flashing TWRP and a custom rom. And then I checked the freaking Nand Erase.
Now, I tried to flash TWRP and do a factory reset/full wipe, but couldn't even enter into recovery mode (vol up+home+power) - it shows "GT-I9505 logo" with small blue text "recovery mode" on top of the screen and then it quickly returns to power off state (with battery charging animation).
The Download/Odin mode is working, thank God. But flashing a stock rom from Odin doesn't solve the problem of bootloop.
I've read that after a nand erase it is needed to flash a PIT file to fix it. Any suggestions where to download it? What version of a PIT file should i look for?
Thank you, guys in advance.
I dont think it will do the job.
I think that nand erase has wiped partitions data.
Any way try with pit. It is in my signature. (Choose right pit file)

Thank you, but flashing PIT didn't work - I made everything according your instructions. Still bootloop.
Maybe I need to reflash Bootloader/Phone/CSC?

U need someone to extract partitions for you to flash, except what is included in the stock firmware. Do you have a backup for efs partitions?
I have param partition fir i9505 to flash. I will attach it soon

go into recovery, if it is possible, wipe data and cache, then flash with odin the stock firmware in pda with the pit file in pit window. just check auto reboot, f.reset and re-partition. when it say "pass" remove battery, re-insert it, go to recovery, wipe data and cache reboot.
im afraid that ticking "nand erase all" in odin, usually lead to a hard brick!

if it didnt work, unzip attached file and flash "param_I9505.tar" in pda. (without pit file)(dont tick re-partition)

Duuude! It worked!!!!
Even without flashing param partition. Just the first step:
go into recovery (I flashed CWM with Odin), if it is possible, wipe data and cache, then flash with odin the stock firmware in pda with the pit file in pit window. just check auto reboot, f.reset and re-partition. (then it went into bootloop as usual and after a moment Odin said "pass") when it say "pass" remove battery, re-insert it, go to recovery (the recovery at that moment returned to stock), wipe data and cache reboot.

glad to hear that....
Never and Ever tick "NAND ERASE ALL" in odin
next time, if you want to erase data, do it from recovery.

Sure! And for the next time what exactly should I pick from recovery to erase everything? apart from wipe data/cashe/factory reset? There are also some format options in advanced menu (format system, data, cashe, dalvik cashe and so on). Or I should not touch anything there anymore? )))

no need for format system..
if you format system, then it must be a ready custom rom in your sd card to flash via cwm. or you must flash stock via odin.
wiping data and cache and dalvik is enough
Thanks very much everyone who partisipated in this thread! You saved me a lot of time and a lot of effort! I was stuck in the boot screen because i formated the whole system. I tried that solution and worked for me! Thanks very very much!

you dont need param file just redo this:
go into recovery, if it is possible, wipe data and cache, then flash with odin the stock firmware in pda with the pit file in pit window. just check auto reboot, f.reset and re-partition. when it says "pass" remove battery, re-insert it, go to recovery, wipe data and cache reboot.

if stock recovery didnt work at first, flash any custom recovery and make the wipe.
it is important to use pit file with the firmware.

Unbrick Galaxy S5

I'm trying to restore this Galaxy S5 back to stock but allow me to give some back story.
It was meant to be simple, I have the correct stock recovery files from samfirmware. I load up Odin and begin to flash it as routine. I watch as it goes through all the steps and checks out just fine, but right at the end when it flashes the Modem.bin it fails.
So I attempt to flash a modem file on its on first. Same thing, immediately fails. Saying auth fail in Odin.
Then I flash Philz onto the phone so I can wipe Partition cache and Dalvik to try again. When I was in there, I went to advance > and unmount /Firmware-Modem but all I get is ERROR MOUNTING /FIRMWARE-MODEM
I don't know if it's possible that it's hardware faulty [failing NAND as an example. The phone has some other strange quirks going on with it too]
Any suggestions would be amazing. I don't know where to go from here at all seeing as that seems to be the road block.

Rebooting on stock and stuck booting on custom

Hello
I have a Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 SM-T230 that is not booting correctly.
I got it in a non working condition, kept rebooting when turned on.
I reflashed the stock ROM using Odin after installing TWRP but this would results in the tablet getting to the choose your language screen then restarting itself.
I tried the below versions of the stock ROM but they all have the same result:
T230XXU0ANG3_T230SER0ANG2_T230XXU0ANG3_HOME.tar.md 5
T230XXU0ANJ4_T230BTU0ANJ2_T230XXU0ANJ4_HOME.tar.md 5
T230XXU0ANK3_T230BSE0ANK1_T230XXU0ANK3_HOME.tar.md 5
StockRoms-Series_T230(NU)+V1.6.3
The custom ROMs I have tried get stuck on their startup/boot screen.
I have also tried:
Wiping all david, cache, data, system, internal.
Re partitioning using DEGASWIFI_HIDDEN_100M.pit
Using Odin 3.9 and 3.12 with the md5 file in the AP section
TWRP openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.1-degas and TRWP_2.8.7.0_EUR_VERSION
The custom ROMs cm-v13-degaswifi-kids-unofficial-20170713, ACHERON_ROM_V2.3.5_SM_T230_NU and [KK] [SM-T231/T230/NU] + Android 5.0 Lollipop Material Design
Combinations of reflashing, factory reseting, cache wiping.
Kies recovery but it will not maintain a connection, keeps disconnecting the tablet
Fixing partitions in TWRP
The only thing left to do as far as I am aware is to NAND Erase all but I am not sure if recovering after doing that is feasible.
Update: Tried Nand erasing, then re partitioning and reflashing of stock firmware, no change.
Tried EFS clear and Phone bootloader update.
Now the partitions appear to be broken and re partitioning with the pit file and reflashing does not fix it, cannot mount data or system.
Any suggestions to resolve this issue?
Thank you

Wipe-/Data and Factory reset doen´t work

Hi,
My s7 got a little bit strange so there very heavy lags.
After this I decided to try a cache wipe.
Aftrerwards I thought i going on the over to the factory reset and this will fix everything.
BUT still it didn´t worked and the reset failed
The output looks like this:
E:format_volume: make ext4 failed on /devblpck/platform/155a0000ufs/by-name/US
Data wipe failed!
Afterwards I reinstalled the OS several times with ODIN.
Still stuck in a Bootloop and a factory reset brings up the same error.
Even a nand erase aswell as a repartition with the correct pit file leeds to the same error.
At the moment I guess the phone is dead and there is no more help.
Or am I wrong and there is a way to bring this back to live?
How did you wipe the phone? You can wipe with twrp and also with adb.
I wiped it with the standard recovery delivered from the Phone.
I tried to flash it a couple of times with odin but still ran in to this error..
Try wipe it with adb. Can you boot into stock recovery? If you cant wipe, make sure you are flashing the correct csc for your phone. So it has to be explicitly for your region and network operator.
